Rings Can Stab Too

Atop the building, standing with both hands in the pockets of his jacket, Ripper gazed upon Rowan's blaster with a bored look in his green eyes. Dark locks of hair fell to hide part of his face as he tilted his head to the side, watching the Mandalorian. Lips twitched into a grin as his gaze turned to Ghost. A large thin ring clicked behind him at it constantly turned in place in the air.

"You really should have taken your friend's medical help," He stated just as the ring floating next to him seemed to disappear. "That leg is going to hurt a lot more now." A chuckle escaped him as he started for the edge of the building. The ring, appearing behind Rowoan, unfurled into a long thin spear before stabbing into the wound already in the Mandalorian's leg.

Ghost gazed at Quint with curiosity and gave her own left arm a glance. "Well, it has fallen off more than I'd like. A bunch of robots chased me for it a few months ago..." She muttered, embarrassed to admit it.

Watching Mar's interaction with Serenity, Ghost felt a strange sympathy for the distressed girl, recalling a time when someone used to do the same for her. She began to reach out with her right hand when those wolf ears of hers picked up the familiar voice of the one person she feared most.

Turning her gaze toward the building, she went wide eyed and screamed at Rowan, "RUN!" Only, it was too late. Ripper's floating machine had already attacked and she knew what would soon happen if she did not play her cards right.

Looking to Mar and the others, she grit her teeth and tried to hold back the fear that was visible in her one eye. "Get yourself and your friends out of here. He'll only get worse." Rising to her feet, she began to walk toward the building with both light sabers drawn.

"I can do this. I can do this..." She muttered to herself, knowing very well that she could not.
